Citation: Fitzgerald N & Lewsey J (2020) Commentary on Wicki et al. (2020): Strong effectiveness evidence-but what else do policymakers need?. Commentary on: Wicki, M., Bertholet, N., and Gmel, G. ( 2020) Estimated changes in hospital admissions for alcohol intoxication after partial bans on off‐premises sales of alcoholic beverages in the canton of Vaud, Switzerland: an interrupted time–series analysis. Addiction, https://doi.org/10.1111/add.14967.. Addiction, 115 (8), pp. 1470-1471. https://doi.org/10.1111/add.15074
Abstract: Wicki et al.’s high-quality controlled study makes a strong case that local off-licence restrictions in Switzerland led to reduced hospitalizations for alcohol intoxication. Further systems-informed study of such policy changes might add valuable evidence on outcomes such as behaviour, public opinion and economic impact for different stakeholders.
